The scientific equivalent of "I've solved perpetual motion, just trust me bro." Revolutionary physics paper claims to explain everything without math, just vibes. They invented a new word "luminic" because "photonic" was too mainstream. Next week: explaining quantum mechanics with interpretive dance and a kazoo.

Their "laboratory" is literally a stack of empty pages waiting to be filled with equations that might someday explain the universe. The minimalism isn't a design choice—it's the entire job description.
